Center console and arm rest for base F/S......

If you're in good shape, I'll sell you a pretty good console arm rest for $50+SH for your Base model 2009-2010 Fit if you want..?

-It's not the Zeta but another one that was on ebay. It's quite nice, sturdy, leather covered over board with a red stripe on top, and it pushes down between the front seats and will not wiggle or otherwise move around on you in the slightest! It also does not interfere with the hand brake, or any movement of the front seats or their backs, and is large enough to hold 8 or 9 CDs! (It does not fold up tho, but is very easy to remove and put back in whenever you want..)
I bought it for $89+SH, thinking I would like a nice armrest but soon discovered that I like my '10 AT Base Fit better w/o any armrest at all. I like a more open arm access to the rear where my dog sits with her head in-between the front seats gap, and even the OEM one wouldn't give me this as it sort of blocks off that space.


Also you're probably wondering why I say "if you're in good shape"? Well at 210 lbs, I ain't, and I pretty much fill up my front seat. And this makes my access to the seat belt socket that's between me and the arm rest a bit tight. (Don't get me wrong; it is absolutely doable, but it still bothers me some...) So if you're slim, or in "good shape", you can take advantage of my being a slacker here and buy yourself a good armrest on the cheap!!

(But then again, maybe if you don't buy it you'll be forcing me to go on a diet, -maybe even work out, get in shape, and lose some of that weight?)
(But don't count on it............)

Are you still looking to get rid of this armrest, or have you lost the weight I like this model armrest b/c it will match my red exterior, but I heard that this particular model sits further back and may not work for shorter drivers (which I am). I also have a manual transmission 2007 fit sport, not sure if that would make a difference or not. Anyway, where in Jersey are you located? Maybe I could see it prior to purchase...

Thanks
Sharon

It would prolly work okay for a MT, but I don't think it will work in a Fit prior to '09? -'Cause this company sold specifically different ones for the earlier year models...

But yes, it's still for sale, as I do prefer riding w/o any armrest!
